A guide to buying property in Abu Dhabi

Please use the form below to download the guide.

Abu Dhabi law 19 of 2005 did two things, firstly it allowed Emiratis to buy and sell land (they had not been allowed to do this before that date), and secondly it created the nation of “Investment Areas” in which property can be “owned” by non-UAE Nationals. This guide will seek to explain the process of non-UAE nationals buying in UAE’S capital.

We have tried to keep this guide chronological, from the initial steps through to the actual purchase.This guide refers to completed units for our “Guide to Buying Off-Plan or Under Construction”
